After the cover is placed on, it is again given a second vacuum wax bath until the unit is completely saturated with wax.

What better of a way to describe the Pat Cloud Banjola (PC-Banjola) than allow Mr. Cloud to explain it himself… "The Banjola arrived and it is just gorgeous! I love the solid feel and the action is perfect. I just love it. It gets better and better every time I pick it up. It's perfect for me. This Friday is my day off and i am going into Tokyo to try some amps out. My whole life has been in exploration of the "five string system" usually attached to banjo, but now attached to an exciting new instrument which satisfies my need for mellow sustain and jazz chord soloing. This top professional model has many upgrades from our original highly successful Banjola. A wider body, pin style bridge, maple/abalone full body binding, multi layered veneer back of headstock, rising sun inlay, maple heel cap, and a dual stereo out transducer/magnetic pick up. A great stage instrument as the amplified tone is unique and sustaining, and it has a very "fat" tone because of the stereo pick up arrangement.” This top professional banjola has many upgrades from the original highly successful Banjola. A wider body, pin style bridge (instead of floating), maple/abalone full body binding, multi-layered veneer on the back of the headstock, rising sun fingerboard inlay, maple heel cap, and a dual stereo out transducer/magnetic pickup configuration. This is a great stage instrument as the amplified tone is unique and sustaining, and it has a pleasing "fat" tone because of the stereo pick up arrangement. Whether you are new to banjo or looking for a new sound to add to your banjo arsenal, the PC-Banjola may just be the sound you are looking for.

The Gibson BurstBucker 1 is slightly underwound, with medium "vintage" output, and works well in both bridge and neck positions. BurstBucker pickups from Gibson Gear now give guitarists a choice of three replica sounds from Gibson's original "Patent Applied For" pickups - the pickups that give the '59 Les Paul Standard its legendary sound. The three BurstBuckers - all with unpolished magnets and non-potted coils, like the originals - represent the variations found among vintage Gibson humbuckers. The initial demand for Patent Applied For replica pickups came from Japanese collectors, and the BurstBucker was offered exclusively in Japan beginning in 1996. By 1999 word has spread of the unique replica tones produced by BurstBuckers. Gibson USA put the first BurstBuckers on a production model with the Gary Moore Signature Les Paul in the Summer of 2000, and Gibson's Custom division then equipped the Class 5 Les Paul, Custom Authentic '68 Les Paul Custom and Custom Authentic '58 Les Paul Standard models with BurstBuckers. The variations in pickup output and tone came from inconsistencies in winding the bobbins, a result of the lack of automatic shutoffs on Gibson's winding machines in the late 1950s. Seth Lover, who invented the humbucker, always said they wound the bobbins "until they were full," and original examples suggest that employees stopped the winding machines after the counter reached approximately 5000 turns. When the two coils in a pickup have a different number of turns, that variation puts a little "edge" or "bite" on the classic humbucker sound. That's the sound BurstBuckers replicate. (The "creamy" sound that Gibson's '57 Classics replicate comes from equal coil windings.) Gibson then carries the replication process two steps farther, with unpolished Alnico II magnets and no wax-potting of the coils, just like the originals.
